The brake system on a motor vehicle is considered a critical safety item according to the Retail Motor Industry Organization (RMI).

Cleaned injectors reduce fuel consumption
Maintaining your vehicle in a good condition and your driving style are the main factors influencing your fuel consumption. Lets look at what will keep your engine running smoothly.
Regular air filter and oil changes prevent fine dirt particles getting into the engine. autoWORKS recommends servicing your vehicle strictly according to manufacturer specifications. Do not try to clean a filter. Blowing out a filter with compressed air or cleaning solutions will damage the microstructure of the filter paper. Subsequently fine sand and dirt particles get into the engine.
Dirty fuel and carbon accumulation in your engine results in fuel injector blockage and leaks, causing high fuel consumption and a noticeable decrease in the performance of your vehicle. In the long-run carbon accumulation can damage the injectors and possibly the engine itself.
Injector cleaning requires removing the injector from the engine and cleaning it on a workbench at a cost of R 2000.00 to R 3000.00 per injector. If too clogged up or damaged, the injectors may have to be replaced which can cost in excess of R10 000.00, or even more if you have a diesel engine.
We are happy to announce good news for vehicle owners. autoWORKS brings you the latest innovation in cleaning vehicle injectors without removing them from the vehicle. We have invested in the latest technology in injector cleaning and are proud to advise that we can now clean your vehicle’s injectors for a fraction of the cost, without even removing them from the vehicle.
The injectors of your vehicle play a vital role in improving performance and reducing fuel consumption and it is recommended that injectors are cleaned at least every 100 000km, or if you notice increased consumption, smoking or uneven idling.
Make an appointment at any autoWORKS branch and for only R1150.00 (VAT included) we’ll clean your vehicles injectors in an hour or less!
